i was a university lecturer teaching a large foundation subject. at the start of semester i would show them how to plagiarise, summarise and obfuscate an essay — on-screen in real-time. it was lots of fun. we also showed them how our assessment practices were resistant to cheating (using a mixture of oral presentations, reflective writing, monitored testing and group moderation). it seemed to work well with very little plagiarism — except for those students who ignored (or missed) the message.
very similar experience with me. after frustration with medical treatment over many years into my mid-60s, i went gluten-free and symptoms cleared within weeks.
This isn’t really related to what I asked though? I don’t think drilling basic arithmetic is “teaching the students the basics of sets and having them derive mathematics themselves” and you surely don’t either
yes, but almost any school subject can be intellectually-expanding ... if well-taught. however there are some pretty influential forces that result in poor teaching (overloaded curriculum, inadequate resources, industrial approaches to school management, etc).
I've been using the Regex Dictionary to refine my Regex search skills while solving Wordle problems. I also refer to Letter Frequency tables (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_frequency) to make up likely candidate words. Are there any other sites that might help?
